Alemao said that lakhs of locals across the coastal belt would >suffer. >When pointed out that his own party was not opposing Mopa airport, Alemao said >that he was very much a member of the Congress party but criticized several >Congress members including Mauvin Godinho, Ravi Naik, Luizinho Faleiro , >Digambar Kamat, Shantaram Naik, and Francisco Sardinha. He stated that neither >the Congress nor the BJP party were in a position to guarantee the non-closure >of Dabolim airport if Mopa became a reality and said he would only believe >their claims if the Union civil aviation minister got a letter stating that >the Indian Navy would not ask for a closure of the Dabolim airport. Alemao >said that the navy might do so citing that there were national security >concerns. >Courtesy: TOI > >MOPA AIRPORT - KONKANI SONG IN PRAISE OF CHURCHILL ALEMAO - by Sharon & Wilmix >Mazarello >http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YYRzIgLZx8 > > >____________________________________________________________________________________________ > > >PAI MOJE KAZAR KOR www.youtube.com >'' PAI MOJE KAZAR KOR'' Song- 'Pai Moje Kazar Kor' From tiatr Keloi Puta Sonsar..
